Adventure Science Center invites you to do yoga under 6.5 million stars
Our team has a lot of affection for the Adventure Science Center — their Way Late Play Dates are some of the most creative and fun evening outings a grown-up/young-at-heart Nashvillian can find. And we’re pretty taken in by creative approaches to yoga — like, say, Shenanigoats’ Goat Yoga, with a mix of instructors... Read More

Attainable Art Deco decor for the everyday Nashville homeowner
Domino magazine just asked an interesting question: “Is Art Deco the Next Mid-Century Modern?” Mid-century modern decor doesn’t seem to want to fade just yet, but we definitely see the beginnings of a changing tide, and the “glamorous details, jewel-toned palettes, and luxe-looking materials” of Art Deco sure seem to be coming to the fore.

Retro kitchen appliances we love
We can’t help but agree with Apartment Therapy here — more and more, the most desired kitchen design style throws way, way back to the early part of the 1900s, with simple shaker cabinets, open shelving, farmhouse sinks and big vent hoods continuing to move into the foreground.
